File storage

How should I store my files?

NTNU provides several solutions for file storage, sharing and collaboration.

There are three important factors you must consider when choosing storage method.

3 important principles

1

What are you going to store?

Think about the type of file/information you are going to save.

2

Consider other features

Consider other needs, such as access control, sharing, backup, and collaboration.

 

3

Who will see the information?

Consider whether what you are going to store, process or share needs protection. Is the information Open, Internal, Confidential or Strictly Confidential?
